Tariq Harb →
Winner of both the First Prize and the Audience Choice Award in the Barrios WorldWideWeb Competition 2011, and First-Prize winner in the 2011 Montréal International Classical Guitar Competition, Tariq Harb is quickly establishing himself as one of the up-and-coming classical guitarists of his generation. His playing has been described as “effortless and thoughtful… a must see guitarist!” (Dr. Garry Antonio); “exceptional musicianship and technical accuracy.” (Dr. Alexander Dunn). Montréal’s Live Music Examiner’s critic, John Wiens, said of Harb’s playing to be “…reaching out with music to touch and feel what cannot be said.” Moreover, he described Harb as a “musical master of melancholy!”
